Arthur Guinness

Something I was reminded of on Facebook: today is the anniversary of the death of Arthur Guinness, the founder of well, the Guinness Brewery. I don't drink Guinness as often as I used to, as often as I should really, nevertheless, as Guinness was during my twenties the companion of many, many nights, I wanted to pay homage to the Irish entrepreneur. I very rarely pay homage to businessmen, but this one deserves it.

Seems only fitting to have a pint in his memory.
